Míriam Bonastre Tur began to create Hooky when she drew Dani and Dorian for the Inktober challenge, and afterwards, she became so "obsessed with them" that she decided to start a comic about them. A friend of hers suggested competing in the LINE Webtoon contest.[3]

Míriam announced on March 22, 2015, that Hooky was to become featured on LINE Webtoon.[4]
